Mr.KingSpooled Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Hey Raiders, Im heading up to Port Macquarie in a few weeks for my first time, never been there before. Wanted to know of any good landbased spots I can fish either surf or rocks and also best ways to fish these. Also if anyone know's any good charter operaters up there, as I wanna get out on a boat atleast once or twice while im up there to enjoy the full experience of Port Mac ! Cheers raiders, Jez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.KingSpooled Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 Can anyone help me out on this please, like i mentioned above ive never been there before ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamG Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I'm lousy at catching fish, but I recommend fishing in the morning. In summer strong NE winds are reliable and uncomfortable. Don't know if applies early autumn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray R Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Hi Jez, mate I have fished the area just north of PM along the beaches between Port and Crescent Head, they offer great fish like bream, whiting, tailor and flatties, get some beach worms and or pipis and you wont miss, the beach on the north side of Port has good numbers of worms and some healthy fish holding holes and gutters...

Ah ok, only problem is I have never been there so is there only 1 major breakwall in PM or is there more? I might have to take my laptop up with me while im there and keep you guys updated on the days fishing trips ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
